As the leaves change to glorious rust and pumpkin and ruby reds in regions blessed with a true autumn , the desire for something spicy to drink while watching the theatre of the changing leaves is definitely on order. This drink makes the grade, and then some. Ingredients:
4 cups brewed strong coffee |
1 cinnamon stick |
8 whole cloves |
1 orange strip, peeled as one long strip from one orange, white pith removed |
4 ounces orange juice, from the same orange (or orange liqueur) |
brown sugar cube, to taste |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, simmer together the coffee, spices, and orange rind, about five minutes, taking care not to boil.
2. Strain the liquid through a fine-meshed sieve into four mugs.
3. Add orange juice, stir and add sugar to taste.
4. For extra oomph, add orange liqueur instead of juice.
